Interviewed Aug 2010 in Las Vegas, NV (took 3 weeks)
2 phone interviews - National Recruiter first gets to know you and your resume, second Recruiter coordinates your real interviews with the VP and Sales Managers. Both were nice girls up to this point. Until I met the VP, which they did not schedule 10 days later (poor timing). The VP claims that someone without sales experience would not do well in this job. I have 3 yrs of sales background on my resume in front of her, but it's like she wasn't listening. Then I ask her how she started ("oh i came from healthcare")...really? This should be a sign that I withdraw right away with an incompetent Regional mgr.
Was called to set up 2nd in person interview with the 2 "sales managers". Waited forever for them to show up, and saw the horrible dress code in the office.. Dirty Flip Flops, wrinkled shorts and t-shirts. Really ADP, fortune 500 much? Saw the employees running around the office and fooling around like 2nd graders. I sat through it and asked many questions about the company to the sales managers. Just a bunch of wishy washy answers, like politicians. I think its because I inquired too much that the next day I received an email saying "The feedback was positive, but we have chosen to proceed with another candidate". Right, another candidate whom they can leash around and abuse?
Overall, the process was long winded, with unprofessional managers in this region. I was glad I didn't waste anymore time with the process. After 4 interviews you would have to do a "day in life" with another rep who hates their job. Then finally do a presentation selling payroll to the VP. The lack of professionalism in person was terrible. Don't let the nice recruiters over the phone waste your time!!!!

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Houston, TX (took 2 weeks)
So far I have had a phone interview, a face-to-face interview, and I have a ride-along scheduled for tomorrow. I am very excited about this opportunity because my friend that referred me has mostly good things to say about her job...there are negative aspects to every job. Everything she has told me about the company has so far been backed up by my experiences during this process. I am really hoping to get an offer at the end of this process because I will undoubtedly accept.

Interview with recruiter, personality test, math test, one on one interview, field ride...and a role play where you have to sell ADP's services to the SE. They will offer you the job if you ask lots of open ended questions while probing.

Interviewed May 2010 in Dallas, TX (took 3 weeks)
I got word of the company through one of my professors in my marketing class. The college liaison sent an email to him, and he forwarded it to the rest of the class. I replied to the email, sent in my resume, and the same day got a call from a recruiter asking where I was looking to relocate.
The recruiter put me through a brief phone screen just to make sure that I knew exactly what ADP did and if I was still interested in it after learning a little more about the position and the company. At the conclusion of that call, we set up a future formal phone interview which took about 30-45 mins and consisted of going over my resume, and asking why I wanted the job.
After the formal phone interview, I was granted a face to face interview in which I met with the VP of Sales 1:1. He reiterated that the job was going to be hard work many times to make sure that I wanted the position bad enough. Since I was from out of town, I was not able to meet with the sales managers during this visit since I came on a day in which they weren't in the office, but set up a time to meet with them.
On my next visit, I met with two sets of two sales managers...Both of which had very different feels. The first interview lasted about an hour and consisted of pretty tough questions and a role play for products that I (currently) sell with my company I work for as well as other questions that were not scripted whatsoever, but were more based off of answers that I gave. The second interview was a little more relaxed and more straightforward and didn't consist of as many tough questions. One of the questions that I specifically remember is: I'm going to give you two different phrases, neither of which is a wrong answer, but tell me which one you would say fits you best. I love to win, or I hate to lose.
Since I had to return to my home city immediately following this interview, the four sales managers and the VP met for maybe two minutes or so, and I met again with the VP of Sales in which he offered the position to me. Overall, I would say this was probably the most difficult interview process I've ever been through just because of the preparation that has to go into the process. They will definitely make sure that you can think on your toes and answer questions that you would never be prepared for.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 4 days)
VERY NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE W/ SEXIST STAFF IN MIDWEST:
The only reason I will not be returning for the next round is because I was told I would not fit in to their aggressive masculine culture but that they were sure I could continue to be a successful sales rep in a different environment (I am a woman with 3 years of sales experience). Throughout the interview I was compared to a female rep I did not have a chance to meet, and kept being reminded this is a good thing, and not to fell "pigeon-holed". Sounded like they had a token female and were wondering if another would work out.
My final interviewer (who was more of a stress interviewer - interrupted me a lot, put his hands on his face and made noises while I talked) told me I was in fact unlike their successful token female, because she had the potential to be both "greedy" and a "b*tch" and he did not believe I could get "down and dirty." Thanks but no thanks, a bunch of chauvinists.
